Benghazi: Hillary Pushed 'Internet Video' Meme at Victims' Funeral. But Hey, What Difference Does It Make?

"Reminder: Hillary Clinton lied about Benghazi while standing in front of the victims’ caskets," Jim Treacher writes. He links to Glenn Reynolds, who in turn quotes from an Insta-reader who writes:

We have known for a long time – and the MSM is going to have to finally reckon with the fact – that the “video” narrative was a fraud, a political construct to cover ass, protect campaign talking points, and misdirect accountability for the four deaths in Benghazi. The Susan Rice spectacle has been pounded on over and over, and rightfully so, but there’s one nuance that needs to be shoved repeatedly into Hilary Clinton’s face:

Hilary pushed the fraudulent video narrative while standing over the caskets of Ambassador Stevens and the other three murdered Americans.

The optics on this alone should haunt her for the rest of her sad, pathetic, cravenly political life. I’ve transcribed her comments, and also have a link to the full, unedited video of the memorial service below.

Clinton comments occur from 16:25-17:45:

“This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We’ve seen the heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing do to with. It’s hard for the American people to make sense of that, because it is senseless, and it is totally unacceptable. The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen and Tunisia, did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob. Reasonable people and responsible leaders in these countries in these countries need to do everything they can to restore security and hold accountable those behind these violent acts. And we will, under the president’s leadership, keep taking steps to protect our personnel around the world.”

You can watch the full segment on YouTube here; I've created a clip in TubeChop that goes straight to the shameful moment quoted above. It's online here.

But, to coin a phrase, what difference does it make, when "Hillary's Republican Guard," as Andrew McCarthy writes this afternoon, will circle the wagons to protect her?
